Mission #58, Day 2
I have always been enamored with a white shirt dress. I love the elusive, understated sexiness of it. I looked online ENDLESSLY until I found the perfect one. This one is pretty short when I belt it, as you can see, but it has pockets, the perfect shirt dress shape that I was looking for and I have roughly 57 ways in my mind to wear it.
I do hope that you all got to have the day off of work yesterday. I did and I cannot tell you how amazing it was. Now that we are done with the school year and thus almost all of the extracurricular activities, I have been using this time mostly to recuperate, but there is a lot that I have wanted to get done that I had been neglecting. Until now, that is.
This week, my weekly resolution is to do some real deep spring cleaning in my house--now that I don't have to pick kids up or drop kids off from school and dance and various other places. So yesterday I spent the entire day cleaning out Patrick and I's room. It feels so good to have our room all feng shui-ed and cleaned.
As I swept and dusted and organized and created piles to toss or donate, I realized how important three day weekends are. On Saturday, I did nothing. Absolutely nothing all day. And it was glorious to just recharge. On Sunday we went and met my mom and stepdad out at the lake for a day of BBQ-ing and relaxing. And yesterday I was actually productive and got our room in tip top condition.
This just goes to show how amazing three day weekends are--one day to rest, one day to party or connect with family and one day to get all your shit done. Perfect.
I vote that we make every weekend a three day weekend. Who else is with me?

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
